(DB) 2435 of 2022 In Re: An application for bail under Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure filed on 20.07.2022 in connection with Samsherganj Police Station Case No. 203 of 2022 dated 11.06.2022 under Sections 153/153A/295/295A/120B/147/149/186/188/332/338/325/353/307 of the Indian Penal Code. (G.R. Case No.1350 of 2022) And In Re: Abdul Motalab @ Abdul Motaleb ... ... Petitioner Mr. Niladri Sekhar Ghosh Mr. Tapodip Gupta ... ... for the petitioner Mr. Rudradipta Nandy .. ld. Addl. Public Prosecutor Ms. Sreeparna Das ... ... for the State It is submitted on behalf of the petitioner that he is in custody for about 52 days. It is further submitted petitioner is a student and has been falsely implicated in the instant case.

Learned advocate appearing for the State opposes the prayer for bail and submits accused persons had damaged public property and assaulted police officers.

We have considered the materials on record. Petitioner was 19 years old and had taken his Higher Secondary examination. No specific overt act is attributed to him. Keeping in mind the young age of the petitioner and the general and omnibus nature of allegations, we are of the opinion further detention of the accused/petitioner is not necessary.

Therefore, the accused/petitioner, namely Abdul Motalab @ Abdul Motaleb, be released on bail upon furnishing a bond of Rs.10,000/- (Rupees Ten thousand only), with two sureties of like amount each, one of whom must be local, to the satisfaction of the

learned Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate, Jangipur, Murshidabad subject to condition that the said petitioner shall appear before the trial court on every date of hearing until further orders and shall not intimidate witnesses or tamper with evidence in any manner whatsoever.

In the event he fails to appear before the trial court without justifiable cause, the trial court shall be at liberty to cancel his bail automatically without reference to this court. The application for bail, thus, stands allowed. (Ananya Bandyopadhyay, J.) (Joymalya Bagchi, J.)
